The response Jake and Ryan asked for concerning "why not use vulgarity?"

My niece is a principal in a suburban middle school. This was today’s discipline event
Student stood on a chair and bent over so that his rear end was towards another student. Then he farted in someone's face. She called the father who had no response.

Well, your very last statement sort of sums it up, doesn’t it? Just think about that kid at 25 or so with that kind of upbringing. Even more terrifying is to think of that kid’s children!

One of my kids is going to school to be a lawyer, the other spent six years in the Air Force and just started school for mechanical engineering. The shame!

The collection plate would take them right back where they started

The good Bishop Avery has a nice ring to it.

Impossible. How can one raise kids with that level of intelligence and ambition while simultaneously, being such a bad parent due to the language you use?



I have never understood the infatuation people have with words. I get that words have meaning and that when to and not use them is important but I think it is overly done, especially when it comes to “swear” words.

Example. I have mentioned a time or two on here that I struggle with suicidal thoughts. Never really open up about it much but I was having a bad day once and on the phone with my mom. I told her that “I just want to put a gun in my mouth and pull the ******* trigger.” Yea, I got a 5 minute lecture on not using the word “****” when talking to her.

I love my mom but when your kid tells you that they want to kill themselves and your concern is based more on the words they use to tell you that than what they actually told you…you should reevaluate that.

Anyways, I don’t listen for many reasons but man, some people must have easy lives for the language others use to be as big of a concern as they make it out to be.

Whats more fascinating than the perspectives around foul language, is the amount of folks who dont understand the purpose of a Podcast.

Using the f bomb was second nature while I was in the Corps and for a good part of my life after. Luckily, I found scripture and learned about the salt of my tongue.

Having kids also compeletly changes your outlook on speech and behavior. Can’t say I don’t get mad from time to time and let a bad word slip like most, but there really isn’t a need for it for myself or my families daily lives and conversations.

I didn't read the whole thread but I rarely listen to the podcast because of the swearing. If it was once in a while I wouldn't care but the amount wears me out pretty quickly, to the point that I choose not listen. I'm not judging anybody, just giving (hopefully) constructive feedback.

 

[CRJR45]

I don't care if you love it or hate it, just keep on posting about it.

I'm hurt , I truly feel you should care , you need to validate my feelings ! I might call my interweb provider and give them a piece of my mind ......

I mean that’s pretty funny.

Kids need to learn to swear eventually so they know what words they aren’t allowed to say in various settings. Not that a kid’s first swear word should be a proud dad moment, but my 4 year old absolutely nailed her first. Context and timing was appropriate and delivery was world class. She was making her mom a card, was just figuring M’s out at the time. She kept writing wow, so I worked with her for a few minutes and she was making pretty good Ms. She went back to her card project, then brought it to me. When I told her that she wrote “wow” again, her face turned bright red, and she said “g*d dam*it!” With perfect inflection, crumpled up the paper and went and snuggled the dog. We had a talk, she hasn’t said it again since. What I would have given to have it on video though.

I would be very disappointed if they stopped swearing. A large appeal to thier podcast is how they don't put on an act for the listeners

Tell @Lane Avery his masters project is to design a mold that spits out perfectly layed up carbon fiber Rokstoks.

I suppose that’s one perspective. Have to admit , although, that I would find it a bit sad if the ability to communicate WITHOUT the use of cursing would be “ putting on an act “.

I might have been able to do that, but since my dad dropped one too many f-bombs when I was kid, I can no longer function as an adult.

This thread has been a funny read though. The amount of non-sense in it is giving Reddit a run for its money.

Honest question @Ryan Avery which I’m sure will display my ignorance of all things Internet.

Why is there no swearing allowed on the slide if the podcast is so wide open?

Don’t want to screw up the kids that can read.

We cant swear on here?

Rule 12 in the ethics thread.
The way that rule is framed leads me to believe it may be due to the restrictive nature of some censorship apps??

Got ya. I mean I have never dropped any F bombs or anything but Ive definetly seen others and have myself used some softer foul language in posts in the past.
